LAW 473-01 Non-Profit Law credits
Students will simulate the creation, management and dissolution of non-profit organizations to explore the legal issues they face. All students will focus on creating a tax-exempt organization at the state and federal levels, fundraising, unrelated business income, lobbying and political activity, board of directors and managerial liability, and dissolving the organization. Students taking the course for three units will do additional work on the distinction between public charities and private foundations, complex business opportunities, and nonprofit accountability.
